That's what makes Uni writing so hard, you have to find evidence to back up your thesis, with proper quoting and bibliographies...writing the paper is simple, doing the research takes time.



what the hell kind of highschool did you go to?? if we dont properly quote, if we dont back up our thesis, if we dont have a thesis, if we dont do a proper bibliography, we fail. i'm currently a junior and its been like this since freshman year.

Honestly, the longest essay I've ever done was 3 pages (double spaced

Nah, that was a college paper. Fortunately in Computer Science I only had a few essays like that, obviously in electives and other classes not related to my major.
